Update a firewall

Updates information for a firewall.

• Assigned Linodes must not have any ongoing live migrations.

• If this operation changes a firewall's status, it generates a corresponding firewall_enable or firewall_disable event.

This operation doesn't affect some parts of a firewall's configuration:

• This operation doesn't set a firewall's devices. Instead, run the Create a firewall device and Delete a firewall device operations to assign and remove this firewall from services.

• A firewall's rules can't be changed with this operation. Instead, run the Update firewall rules operation to update your rules.

• Use this operation to set a firewall's status to enabled or disabled. But to set it to deleted, run the Delete a firewall operation.

• An assigned default firewall can't be disabled.
